It's going to get a lot worse.
The Fed and the governments are both out of control. Hyperinflation within a decade.

Isn't the avg household income like $80k in Utah?

There are probably many young people living in apartments
Belboz

I should clarify. Housing is too expensive, but incomes of young people increase
Belboz
Apr 24, 9:57am
Even higher income requirements for tithe payers.
Zach Morris

Earning a bunch of money and spending it on rent doesn't qualify as "increase"

So your net calculation includes subtraction of housing costs?

I know several people who take that position.

I wouldn't if I were paying rent. I don't pay tithing on money we pay to nannies
dYrtbYkerYder

Do you pay tithing on money you pay for restaurants, doctors, uber, flights, etc?
YIsForBrigham
Apr 24, 11:14am
Do you pay tithing on the portion of health insurance your employer pays? How

I know a person who subtracts medical expenses from income.

Maybe people who make less than that should get a smaller home then?

It's Utah. The smallest home is 4000 sq ft

The problem being the amount of available homes that cost less than the median

Knowledge on this issue isn't an area of strength for you, we can conclude

The 28% figure is a little antiquated

Will be higher going forward

With rising costs of everything that figure is probably more relevant than ever

With FHA/VA financing options, typical down payments can be much less than 20%.

I was able to get a conventional with only 5% down

It's okay for dual income households. It's terrible for everyone else.

Seems pretty expensive everywhere except the Midwest. I don't like it but it isn't just Utah. If you want to live

The Southeast is also cheap and it's much nicer than the Midwest.

El Paso area looks great. Homes are like half of Utah's prices.

There have to be decent areas that still have good prices for homes.

People who say this are not doing their due diligence.

While it isn’t just Utah, it is a disproportionate problem with Utah when considering several factors like median income
Zach Morris

You summarized that well
TNT

I agree that it's worse in Utah. I've been trying to talk my wife into moving to MT, ID, or WY for years. I browse

I agree with you but think about how crazy that sounds.

The younger generations will need to move to Iowa or Alabama.

Sure if you can maintain a high income there.

Commerce will increase in those areas as population shifts happen
